The story behind this hand print tattoo will leave you with a lump in your throat

The dad said: "It would symbolise a cuddle, I thought."

A dad in Australia has revealed the heartbreaking story attached to a tattoo in a touching message for Father's Day there, which is celebrated on the first Sunday of September.

Brad Kearns, who runs a Facebook parenting blog, DadMum, posted the image of the tattoo on his chest of two small hand prints of his firstborn child, Buddy, who was stillborn.
